Amazon Cuts Under 1,000 Stores Division Jobs in Latest Trim
NewsData.io · United States · Oct 8, 2026
Amazon has confirmed it is eliminating fewer than 1,000 white-collar positions, primarily within its Stores division covering e-commerce operations, customer service, and selling partner services. Affected employees span the U.S., India, and U.K. The cuts follow a much larger restructuring that removed roughly 30,000 Amazon jobs between 2025 and January 2026. Recruiters should note a modest wave of e-commerce and retail operations talent entering the market, though the relatively small scale limits immediate candidate supply impact.
